Gestation is between 60 - 70 days with a litter of two to five pups. When the otter pup is born they stay with the mother for around 10 months. While they are taught to hunt and swim they can be seen on the mother's belly while floating. [2]

Lontra felina spends almost the entirety of its life in the littoral zone. At times will venture inland through salty rivers in search of food. [2]
